Best Vegan Restaurants in Hamden

The food, the service and the ambience were excellent. It was busy so the noise level was moderate but the high ceilings meant that we had no trouble hearing each other talk.

Gioia is our favorite restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut. It’s a whole experience and everything on the menu is delicious. You just gotta go there. Make a reservation first. We will keep going back!

The entire staff from our hostess to waitress to manager were all amazing! The food was outstanding. Four of us dined and shared apps and tried each other’s dinners and there wasn’t one thing we didn’t all enjoy. We arrived on time but there was a bit of delay getting us seated. The hostess continually checked in with us and made sure we were seated as soon as a table was available. The manager was apparently made aware (not by us) and at the end of our meal she offered us desserts on the house, which was both unexpected and very much appreciated. A great touch and ending to an overall outstanding experience. We will be regulars here from now on!

Our server and service was awesome. Jackie is probably the politest server we’ve had in a long time. She’s always checking to make sure everything is good and if she can possibly get us something else. We love the Grain salad and since we also love the Brussels sprouts with bacon we decided to combine the two together for lunch. Totally delicious!

Great service and delicious lunch. The chicken salad sandwich and fries were perfect! Can’t wait to explore more items on the menu! Next time…
